Beaver Island Community Highlights
The largest island in Lake Michigan, Beaver Island hosts many activities for every nature lover. The Island is about 13 miles long and 6 miles wide, about 54 square miles in area.
There is a lot to see and enjoy. You can get a taste of Beaver Island in a day. The Boat Company offers tours, and a flight from Charlevoix will get you to the Island in only 15 minutes.
The year-round population is approximately 600 – with a large percentage of Irish descent. Time slows down here, offering a peaceful, relaxed way of life. Beaver Island has a modern 14,000 square foot Spartan store and two handy convenience stores. There are two gas stations, hardware, and building supply store, a spa, and many gift stores and recreational businesses. Restaurants range from family fast food to outstanding casual dining.
Beaver Island has a modern well equipped Rural Health Center staffed by two experienced Nurse Practitioners who have 24-hour access to emergency physicians on the mainland. Physicians visit monthly. Care is available 24/7. Beaver Island also has an outstanding Emergency Medical Service (EMS) and Fire Department. The EMS response time is faster than in most cities. In the case of serious illness or injury charter flights to the mainland are available including an Air Ambulance. In the worst-case weather scenario, the United States Coast Guard can send a helicopter from Traverse City. Excellent hospitals are located in Charlevoix, Petoskey, and Traverse City.
Getting to Beaver Island
Getting to and from the island is part of the Beaver Island lifestyle. On a beautiful day, the two-hour Beaver Island Boat Company ferry ride across Lake Michigan between Charlevoix and the island feels like a Caribbean cruise. A plane ride with Island Airways or Fresh Air Aviation is a 10-minute hop with heavenly aerial views that, on a clear day, stretch to the Upper Peninsula. Our suggestion? Unless the round-trip rate is a deal-breaker, treat yourself to the boat one way and plane the other so you get the full, top-to-bottom Beaver Island experience.
Beaver Island Restaurants
Reserve a table at the Beaver Island Lodge for an intimate dinner of regional specialties paired with a stellar view of Lake Michigan. The local watering hole since 1935, Shamrock Bar & Restaurant has an outdoor patio that overlooks Paradise Bay making it, well, paradise if the weather cooperates. Stoney Acre Grill serves up solidly yummy tavern cuisine. The restaurant is adjacent to Donegal Danny’s Pub, named after an island blueblood named Danny O’Donnell who was said to enjoy a good meal, friends, and cold pints. Your breakfast, lunch, pizza, and to-go sandwich headquarters are Dalwhinnie Bakery & Deli next to McDonough’s Market where the bread is baked fresh every day and the sausage is house-made. For a unique experience head over to Whiskey Point Brewing Co., This nano-brewery and taproom will serve beer, wine, hard cider, and soft drinks all made at his establishment.
